Ousmane N’Diaye

Draft Notes

Ousmane N’Diaye is one of the most intriguing young prospects anywhere in the world. At 6-11 with good length Ousmane has great size, awesome mobility and a silky smooth perimeter game. He loves to shoot the 3pt shot and is nearly impossible to block.

He’s got really good coordination for a player his size/age and has good handles too, allowing him to beat his man off the dribble and shake free for jumpers or get to the rim. He has incredibly quick feet for a big, truly elite.

Over the next few years expect to hear a lot more about Ousmane N’Diaye as the basketball world takes notice.
